It's actually funny. After watching the short video of the Queen and Paddington I decided to revisit a child's memory and borrowed all the Paddingtons I could from the local library. I'm still working through them (and enjoying them) but can't help but wonder what the original currency in the books was.

Too many times I read of something being five or ten pence. Knowing these were mostly written in the late 50s and 60s, I presume they would have been a shilling, or maybe half-a-crown.

Anyone out there have old printed versions and could check them?
